Built in 1890,
our Inn is a wonderful example of the
Queen Anne revival style and was designed
by the renowned PEI architect, William
C. Harris. Harris enjoyed creating unusual
effects with light and shade by cutting
decorative shapes in the barge board of
his homes; a prominent feature of the
Silver Fox Inn. This beautiful old Victorian
home was first converted into an Inn about
25 years ago and has been a Bed and Breakfast
Inn ever since. One of a small number
of properties qualified to be one of the
"Inns of Distinction" of PEI.,
the Inn has been owned by Rod & Penny
Herbert since 1999 and has been completely
updated with many additional features
and improvements to make your stay a memorable
and comfortable one.
Once inside, the open and freely planned
interior is evident. The spacious living
room features beautiful walnut woodwork,
built in cabinets on either side of the
fireplace, and several large bay windows.
Relax in one of our oversized wingback
chairs and enjoy complimentary coffee
or tea and treats in the evenings, curl
up and listen to music or enjoy a book
from our library.
Upstairs on the second and third floors,
each of the bedrooms has been named for
a different colouration of Fox pelt. All
bedrooms have private en-suite bathrooms,
with King, Queen or double beds. All rooms

cotton blankets, plenty of thirsty cotton
towels, a selection of toiletries, hairdryer,
hot water bottles, bath pillows, and many
other extras. All rooms have colour cable
tv, air conditioning, in room phones .
Access to high speed internet is available.
Outside the Back garden has been carefully
landscaped to create a quiet oasis, with
flower gardens and a two tiered deck overlooking
3 fish ponds with numerous koi and other
pondfish.
